From Common Condo to Personalized Haven

REMODELING & ADDITIONS

A Flaming Hot Remodel

With extensive work to be done in the kitchen, bathrooms, bedroom and living room, almost everything originally in the condo had to go. Whether it be the thick carpet, pink bathtub, or yellow walls in the kitchen, the previous design was busy, dated, and not to the taste of our clients at all. Instead, they wanted a contemporary feel with clean lines and simple color palette. Taupe quickly became the favorite color, and soon the apartment boasted many warm tones that matched to help create an inviting space.

The biggest issue arose while disassembling the fireplace in order to redo the front of it. Our team found the fireplace box was off by a quite a few inches, requiring the team to rebuild the fireplace wall to make it functional and safe. Otherwise, every adjustment was simple and straightforward, especially since they lived in a condo which had many association rules and limited major layout adjustments. For example, initially the clients wanted to remove the soffit in the kitchen. However, our team found that ductwork attached to neighboring condos lived in the soffit. Luckily, our designer was able to create a blueprint that included the required soffits and layout that still captured the dream design of our clients.
